$42 for the Keyboard + whatever shipping
These are full sized boards. The 87-key version has the same price but no sight of it yet

On a side note, CM storm with MX Reds are back in stock

EDIT: Confusing description for the Clicky XM, description shows 1087 but title shows 1008, maybe they'll get it fixed soon.
EDIT 2: Link fixed for non-clicky Ducky

So are these the tenkeyless or not? I just clicked on the Click DUCKY XM and it came up with the tenkeyless version.

I guess the manufacturer started a new color scheme for their line of ALPS-type switches

Maybe the people at OCN that sells them Duckies can give an exact answer.

This the local PCHOME, and PC-Party is like an affliate. Much like how you have different type of sellers on Amazon
It is not PCHOME that ships internationally at a cheap rate

I betcha the green is linear.

I tried the DK1008XM and 1087XM out previously,
Ducky with Green ALPS are tactile and clicky.
The one with black ALPS are tactile but non-clicky, though I find it rather clacky

I see.  I thought it was likely like that.  How do we convince the real PCHOME to sell it? :) :) :)

Yeap, it looks like the DUCKY ALPS with click/non-clicky switches for 104 key and 87 key versions are now available at the PCHOME that ships internationally.
However, it is still a listing for the 1008 clicky and 1087 non clicky, not ready for order yet.
